Lady Gaga’s already famous, but she’s being honored as Billboard‘s “Rising Star” at the trade publication’s annual Women in Music event this week.

Lady Gaga’s debut CD “The Fame” has sold more than 1 million copies since its release late last year, and she’s had two No. 1 singles with “Just Dance” and “Poker Face.” In November, she kicks off a joint tour with Kanye West.

Lady Gaga will be honored along with Beyonce on Friday. Beyonce was named “Woman of the Year.”
